You can change WooCommerce SKU text to another label using the gettext filter
add_filter('gettext', 'translate_woocommerce', 10, 3);
/**
* Change SKU Label
* @link https://gist.github.com/dannyconnolly/da6f1a2d95dc826ccdcd
* @since 1.0.0
*/
function translate_woocommerce($translation, $text, $domain) {
if ($domain == 'woocommerce') {
switch ($text) {
case 'SKU':
$translation = 'Catalogue No:';
break;
case 'SKU:':
$translation = 'Catalogue No:';
break;
}
}
return $translation;
}
So in the above snippet which goes in your functions.php file, any instance of ‘SKU’ or ‘SKU:” will get changed to “Catalogue No:”, change the translation text to suit.

Works on admin pages, but the actual product page that the end-user sees still displays SKU?
Using Carnival Lite theme if that makes a difference.

Your snippet above is missing the last part:
add_filter('gettext', 'translate_woocommerce', 10, 3);
Then it works

This is great! Is there a way that you know of to change the text that displays before a variable product option is chosen? Right now before my customers choose an option they see N/A. I would like to change that to “Select option”
